Except when I'm whinging that the entire shape of my face is wrong (http://www.livejournal.com/users/karen2205/151001.html), I'm normally reasonably happy with my face (except for not being able to smile evenly) in comparison to the rest of my body.
My sex life, though, such as it ever was, has been completely dead for the last three years and seems really rather likely to stay that way for the foreseeable future.
Mine's only just starting. You can read stuff in my journal, if you want, but I'm a bit wary of saying more on a public post.
my self-image is so awful that I can't imagine anyone ever being attracted, and that feeds straight back into my image of myself.
Oh yes, I know that one. I am immediately suspicious of anyone who tells me I'm attractive. I tend to respond with something like 'But you can't possibly believe that.'.
although I'm aware I'm probably harsher on myself than most people would be.
I think everyone is harsher on themselves than other people are:-(
